An 82-year-old Korean man was declared dead by doctors, but shocked everyone when he woke up just an hour later.

A general hospital in Bucheon witnessed a strange miracle where an 82-year-old man, Mr. A, woke up after was declared dead by doctors due to kidney dialysis.

According to the hospital, Mr. A had been struggling for a long time with his illness, and was recently transferred from a smaller hospital as his condition seemed to be getting worse.

Unfortunately, he died just three days after he was transferred, despite the hospital staffs attempts to revive him multiple times using CPR. His body was then moved to the morgue in preparation for the hospital funeral.
